Onto the positives. First, the packaging of this lipstick is gorgeous. It's so easy to open and close, and there's no issue of closing and then the cap doesn't align properly with the bottom. Second, the colour is very pigmented and shows up very nicely on my lips. I've seen several people wearing the same shade, but it looks different depending on your own skin, which is so great!
Now onto the negatives. First, the brush picks up way too much product every time I uncap it, and I always have to wipe it by the edge before I can apply. This can get pretty wasteful pretty fast, and can get a little messy if you're not careful. Second, the brush is not very precise. It's great when applying at the middle of your lips. However, because of how much product it usually has, and how big the brush is, it's difficult to get a precise application on the sides of the lips. It's even more difficult to make sure the colour doesn't seep outside the lip line.

Canada Dry Club Soda - Pomegranate-Cherry

I'm not a fan of club soda to begin with, but I was hoping to be persuaded. While the flavour of the pomegranate-cherry was very prominent when the can was first opened, it wasn't as pronounced on my taste buds. I still had a bitter aftertaste to it and it wasn't as pleasant as I had hoped. It's very refreshing and great during a hot day, and the low calorie count is certainly a plus, but it's just not something I'd grab again. -

This product is absolutely amazing! It has been my go-to for spot treatment for years now. A little goes a long way. My acne will always recede and disappear after 2 days of use, twice a day. The bottle is small and convenient enough that I can also bring it whenever I'm travelling. The only downside is the design. I find that I need to tilt the bottle completely upside down for the solution to come to the q-tip, and by that point, too much comes at once. I haven't found an easy way to only use a tiny bit yet. -

These are one of my favourite face masks. I purchased three packs while I was travelling in Japan as the price was much better. Each mask is full of serums and there is even excess serum in the bag that I can save up to use again. My face feels very moisturized afterwards and the scent is subtle so I'm not tempted to remove the mask after 5min of use only. The pack comes with 7 masks, one for each day, but with the leftover serums I had enough for another 2-3 days of use as a face serum. -

I was searching for a light moisturizer when I came across this product. I was excited to try this product as I always have a hard time finding a light moisturizer from Korean beauty products that had this light cream texture, as a lot are more in liquid forms. This moiturizer is very light but highly moisturizing, so I only use a little bit every night right before bed. It is very thin and cold and absorbs into my skin very quickly. It also doesn't cause any breakouts for me, which is very important as my skin is usually sensitive. -

I was looking for a car mount for my cellphone to use in the car as I was tired of holding it or putting it in the cup holder while driving. When I found this, I was excited to try it. There were two holders in the box. The holders themselves seem a little small but their magnetic forces are surprisingly very strong. I've put one magnetic strip inside my case without the adhesive and it still stays on the holder for the entire time. For the price, it is very good! The one thing to be cautious about, though, is that depending on the car model, the mount may not sit flushed with the air vent. Sometimes when you're trying to remove the phone, you end up taking the mount off the vent itself, but you can just easily put it back on. -

The smell of mandarin and lime of this product is just so delicous. I love this scent as it just brings me to my happy place. It's not too strong but just enough to make you almost want to eat it (or use it all). The bodywash itself was great to use as it made me feel so refreshed. -

I am a huge fan of asian beauty products and was super excited to try this after hearing about the scent. I love peach and hoped this was as good as the fruit! The sake scent was definitely evident when in use, so if you don't like the smell, I'd suggest not using this. My skin loves it though. It absorbs the toner quickly, but sometimes it has a bit of a sticky residue that doesn't always go away. -

I love my moisturizers and am always on the lookout for potential HGs! Recently, I was looking for a medium-thick moisturizer and this fit the bill. The package is beautifully shaped in a subtle upside-down V shape and the colour scheme fits the theme. The fragrance is a little stronger than I would've liked, and lingers for quite a while. The product itself is easy to apply, but I found it was good to really massage and spread it with my fingers given its consistency. It takes a while to absorb into the skin so at the very beginning I found it to be a little sticky. -

I'm always on the lookout for towelettes as they are really convenient to bring around when I'm travelling. So when I received this during Christmas time, I didn't hesitate to leave it in my purse. The cucumber scent is really subtle but somehow makes my face feel refreshed. This is quite nice as I'm not always a fan of the cucumber scent. Unfortunately, it doesn't remove all my makeup at once, which makes it a little disappointing as I often have to use two sheets, thereby ending up going through the pack quite fast. -
